A number of hurricanes hold that distinction. Hurricane Andrew is one. Other notable example include Katrina and Ivan.
A number of hurricanes struck the U.s. in the 1990s. The most well known of these was Hurricane Andrew in 1992, but other ones with major U.S. impacts include Floyd in 1999 and Hurricane Opal in 1995.
About 25 hurricanes of varying intensity have struck Miami from 1900 to 2009. You can see an excellent map of this as well as the number of major hurricanes in the area at the link below, which was produced by the National Hurricane Center (these maps are towards to bottom of the page.)
There have been 3 Category 5 hurricanes since 1899 that have hit the U.S. at category 5 strength: the Labor Day hurricane of 1935, Hurricane Camille of 1969, and Hurricane Andrew of 1992.
The costliest hurricane in U.S. history was Hurricane Katrina in 2005 with an estimated 81.2 billion dollars in damages.
They were both hurricanes that caused costly, extensive damage to populated areas of the US, Andrew in 1992 and Katrina in 2005. Both hurricanes created devastation in areas of the state of Louisiana, Katrina moreso because of her stronger winds and storm surge. Both storms were, at their peak, among the strongest of hurricanes, being classified as Category 5 storms. Andrew was, at the time, considered the most costly hurricane to ever strike the US, doing more than $26 billion USD in damage. Katrina did more than 4 times as much damage at $108 billion USD. Only the Great Miami Hurricane of 1926 may have caused more damage when adjusted to current dollars.
No, global warming is not a warning because there is to much poison gases in our surrounding and they are harmful for us.
